Chapter 1456 What the Hell?
Haier was wrapped in a rough blanket and taken to a secret room by two armed soldiers.
"Go in!"
The soldier who brought Haier to the secret room pushed Haier hard. Haier staggered slightly and was pushed into the secret room.
This can't be considered a secret room. It's probably just a room for the bottom sailors. There is a dark greasy film like motor oil around it. One window is broken and nailed with wooden boards, completely closed. The ceiling is swaying in the dim light. There is a strong fishy smell around, like the smell of abnormal leucorrhea mixed with blood, and like the dark and smelly smell of hemorrhoids bursting mixed with feces.
Haier couldn't help frowning. The smell was too strong.
He now has the physique of an ordinary adult, and he has been soaking in the sea water for 1 hour. His body can't help trembling to heat up and maintain vitality, and the energy supply is not enough. Hunger rolls his stomach.
"I need to get something to eat and recover my strength first." While observing the room, Haier tried to control his body to maintain his strength.
He didn't have the strength of the human body, but some perception of the physical condition and control of the body still made him look not so miserable.
The miserable situation was all performed for the pirates.
In fact, Haier still had a clearer understanding and control of his body, and he was not shivering in the sea water.
In the degree of control of his breathing and the relaxation of his body muscles, he was far from shivering as weak as he looked.
Even now, it was no problem to kill fifty people with his bare hands with his skills.
Because people are very fragile, they only need one or two hits to die, which is not difficult for Haier at all.
Of course, it was different when they had guns. Fifty guns were facing him, and this body did not reach the limit of human flesh, nor did it have the maneuverability of human flesh. It was still difficult to dodge and avoid the guns.
Haier was pushed into the room and was about to turn around to ask for some food.
"Your food will be brought to you in clothes later. Stay here and don't move, otherwise you will be tortured." When the two soldiers were about to close the door, one soldier took out two pieces of compressed biscuits and threw them at Haier. They hit the blanket on Haier's back and fell to the ground from the blanket.
They were two pieces of compressed biscuits that were so hard that they could break teeth.
However, the two armed soldiers closed the iron door with a "bang" and locked it.
Haier turned around, picked up the two pieces of compressed biscuits on the ground, tore open the silver packaging bag, put a corner of the hard compressed biscuits in his mouth, soaked it with saliva, and swallowed it.
While soaking the compressed biscuits with his mouth saliva, he adjusted his physical condition.
Although the healthy physique of an average adult cannot completely control every muscle in the body, he can regulate his heart rate through breathing and muscle relaxation and tension, allowing his body, which had been soaked in the sea water for an hour, to gradually return to normal.
At the same time, he also quietly listened to the conversation of the two armed soldiers outside the door.
"There is no need to say so much to him, he can't understand." Another armed soldier said to the soldier who was talking to Haier before closing the door.
They thought Haier didn't speak Somali.
Somalia has multiple language families, Semitic language family> Cushitic language family> East Cushitic language branch> Somali branch> Somali language.
Since 1922, Somalia has adopted the "Osmanian alphabet" as the spelling text. In 1960, the "Osmanian alphabet" and the Latin alphabet were used in parallel. Since 1972, Latin letters have been used for spelling, but "Osmanian letters" are also used for spelling in some private and special occasions.
The pronunciation of Somali is roughly the same as that of English, but in Somali, "x" is pronounced as [h], "r" is pronounced as [r], with a trill instead of a flick, and "ca" is pronounced as [a:], from the throat.
Haier not only knows how to listen, but also how to write, and is even more professional and proficient than all Somalians.
He even knows that the pronunciation and meaning of some words in Somali are similar to those in Chinese.
Because in Somalia, there is a place called "Zheng He Village", where the locals claim to be descendants of Chinese sailors when Zheng He sailed to the West.
In the past, Somalia also had a Zheng He Memorial Hall, and the mosque where Zheng He prayed is still in Mogadishu. Somali has also been influenced by Chinese. For example, the Somali words "no" and "let's go" are similar in pronunciation and meaning to those in Chinese, and this has been the case since Zheng He sailed to the West.
No one is more proficient in the history of any region on the earth than Haier.
Hale often needs to travel through various universes. For the time being, he mostly travels through the earth of each universe. It can be said that he is proficient in the deviations of the earth in each universe.
As long as Hale has the power of a Kryptonian, the knowledge of the earth in the biological brain will be easily mastered by him.
A little Somali language, there is no difficulty at all.
"The young marshal asked us to watch him carefully, maybe he is a big guy." Another armed soldier said.
"He does not look like one of us." Another armed soldier thought about it, thinking of Hale's appearance, even if he was soaked in sea water for an hour, he still had a temperament beyond ordinary people.
No matter who sees Hale, they can feel Hale's temperament that is not like ordinary people. Anyone can see at a glance that Hale is not an ordinary person.
This is why Young Marshal Kundi treated Haier well.
He is very valuable at first glance.
Otherwise, ordinary people would have been thrown into the bottom of the freighter by Young Marshal Kundi, eating, living and pulling with dozens of hostages.
Haier's situation is already considered aristocratic treatment among hostages.
The armed soldier said: "I don't know how much property his family is willing to pay to redeem him."
"Even if there is no property to redeem him, he can still be sold for a lot of money. He looks good and many people like him in the underground dark web." The armed soldier who threw food to Haier said.
Another armed soldier sighed that Haier was worth a lot just for his looks, and he was indeed a top-grade commodity. Then he said with regret: "I hope we can get a good price, so that we can recruit more soldiers and kill those bastards from Melka.
Damn it, the last time they crossed the border and robbed a fishing boat I was about to attack. They extorted 1.5 million US dollars from that boat. Damn it, they really deserve to die!"
The armed soldier was indignant. Their forces had long been resentful of the Melka forces, and both sides had frictions, especially the fishing boat that was robbed by Melka in his last action. When he heard that the ransom extorted by the Melka forces was 1.5 million US dollars, he regretted it so much that he wished to see a member of the Melka forces and kill a member of the Melka forces afterwards.
Somali pirates are not all in the same group, and can be roughly divided into four forces.
"Puntland Guards" are the earliest group engaged in organized piracy in the Somali waters.
"National Coast Volunteer Guards" are smaller in scale and mainly rob small ships sailing along the coast.
"Merka", they use small fishing boats with strong firepower as their main tools, and their characteristics are flexible methods of committing crimes.
The most powerful pirate gang is called "Somali Sailors", and their range of activities is as far as 200 nautical miles from the coastline.
They all call themselves "Somali Marines".
Haer quietly held the compressed biscuits and listened to the two armed soldiers at the door talking about their recent situation, and analyzed from it...
What the hell is this?
